An/ I have an other story of which I only posted one chapter so if there is still interest in "in sickness and in health" I will also start writing for that story again, so let me know!
Chapter Thirteen
Gibbs joined Kelly for lunch the next day and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
'Hey honey, sorry I'm late.'
'That mean your buying?'
'Your as bad as your mother you, fine I'll be buying since I did ask you to come.'
'You sounded serious dad, what's going on?'
'Right, right to businesses, that how ever you have from me,' Gibbs sighed. 'I'm nut sure how to start but your mom and I heard your little game with Tony yesterday and it left me worried.'
'You mean truth or dare?'
'You asked him to kiss you.'
'And your point is?'
'Kells, you barely know him, to be kissing him already is a little soon, don't you think?'
'Dad, it was just a kiss not a full love making session which ended up with me pregnant.'
'I don't want it Kelly, you don't know him or his family.'
'I'm a full grown woman dad, if I want to get to know him then I will!'
'Kelly...'
'What is your problem all of a sudden with him, I thought you liked him!?'
'It's not with him that my problem's with, but he comes from a dangerous family!'
'He isn't his family, he is his own person in his own right, since when do you care about something like that?'
'I know that he isn't his family, if he was I wouldn't have hired him, but his family isn't a ordinary one Kells, I need to protect you and you mom from them.'
'Then quit your job and become librarian...oh wait on second thought, then angry library people might come after us so let me think of something different...clown at a circus...nah you'd scare everyone and make enemy's with the guest who'd come after us...'
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, you've made your point, do you really like him Kelly, is it worth it?'
'I really like him, yes, like you've told me, I don't know hem that well yet and we're not rushing, but we want to get to know each other, find out if it could become more between us.'
'I worry Kells.'
'I know dad, but even if Tony was a lawyer with the perfect family you would find something to stop me from dating him.'
Gibbs sighed knowing that Kelly was right.
'Please don't rush into anything...can you promise me that?'
'Yes dad, I can promise you that, like I said, it was just one kiss, and not a spontaneous one at that but one from a dare.'
'Fine, but I will be speaking with him.'
'Please don't scare him off.'
'Something tells me that he doesn't scare easy...'
Gibbs' phone rang.
'Sorry, I have to take this', he said as he picked up the phone. 'DiNozzo, what did you find?
'Where?', Gibbs asks with a hint of excitement in his voice.
'Pick me up on the way', he said as he hung up the phone.
'You've got to go?'
'Yeah, DiNozzo's contact got back to him with names of the other two guys and a location, we're on our way to pick them up.'
'Be careful dad.'
'Always am.'
He said and rushed out the restaurant.
A waiter came to Kelly and gave her the check.
'Second B's right...he still left the check for me, damn it.'
'How long before we get there?'
'Not long boss,' Stan told him. 'We'll be there in a minute, that's the house right there.'
Tony and Stan had picked Gibbs up thirty minutes ago and were headed to a remote area somewhere just out of DC.
'Put on the vests and check the ammunition, I don't want to be surprised when we get there.'
They made themselves ready to go, checked their vests and put them on, stocked up on ammo and went for the bust.
'DiNozzo your with me, Stan take the back.'
Slowly they walked to the small house, Stan walked around back and Tony and Gibbs waited for him at the front.
'I'm in position boss.'
'Enter on my command.'
'Understood boss,' whispered Stan.
'Ready DiNozzo?'
'Yes boss.'
'Go, if they hear you, you'll be on desk duty for the rest of you time on my team.'
Gibbs opened the door slowly not at the least surprised that it wasn't locked and went in with Tony on his heels.
They crept in and cleared downstairs.
Gibbs pointed at the stairs and Stan nods.
Gibbs first, Stan second and finally Tony made it upstairs and surrounded the two men, they surrounded them when Gibbs spoke.
'NCIS, Federal agents,Gerald Turk, Nathan Walker, get down on the ground with your hands on your head!'
'Fuck man, feds!', the bald one yelled.
The one with a crows nest for a hair cut jumped for cover while grabbing for his gun.
Shots followed from all directions and while the agent want the men alive, mean their own lives and those of their colleagues more to them then anything.
Finally things calmed down and they could really take the situation in.
'Walker's down, shot in the head, I can't see Turk.', said Tony.
'I have visual on Turk, he's down with a gun shot wound in the shoulder', answered Burly.
'You guys got hit?'
'No boss, I'm good.'
Stan was quick to assure Gibbs, Tony however took his sweet damn time.
'DiNozzo, you good?', Gibbs was getting a little impatient, he had heard his agent's voice just a minute ago so if he was hit it couldn't be severe, right?
'Sorry boss, just checking myself out and I'm good.'
"Damn it DiNozzo don't scare me like that!" Gibb nearly yelled but luckily managed not to.
If DiNozzo had gotten hurt now already Kelly probably would have keelhauled him...
'Get Ducky here for Walker and get Turk to the hospital to have him fixed.'
'On it boss.' Stan took out his phone and made the phone calls.
They had decided to let Turk brew for a night and left for home.
Gibbs decided that now would be a perfect time to talk to Tony about yesterday and Kelly.
'Tony?'
'Yeah Gibbs?'
'I know about your feelings for Kelly.'
'That obvious huh?'
Gibbs smiled.
'That and I heard your truth or dare game yesterday, know you kissed her.'
Tony swallowed hard, was Gibbs going to kill him?
'I spoke to Kelly this afternoon, told her I don't want her seeing you, not because I dislike you...'
'But because my family sucks beyond any understanding?'
'Yeah, but she also told me that your not your family, that you are your own person and I know that...'
'But since if it did work out between Kelly and me she would become a potential victim to...'
'Yeah, she told me that if I want her and her mom safe I should quit NCIS and pick another job as well.'
'And how do you feel about it now?'
'I still worry Tony, she's my girl, I don't want to see her get hurt.'
'I would never hurt her Gibbs.'
'If you were to get hurt she would hurt, if you were to disappear she would hurt, there are so many ways for her to get hurt Tony.'
'That not only counts for me Gibbs, that goes for you to, that's the life we chose to live, only I have the bad luck to be related to the mob.'
'Don't break her heart Tony and don't rush into things, she's a great girl, deserves the best.'
'I know Gibbs, we'll take it easy.'
